\section{Common AI/ML Integration Patterns}

\subsection{\textbf{Pattern 1: Multi-Model Architecture with Fallback}}

This pattern implements multiple AI model providers with automatic fallback capabilities:

\begin{lstlisting}[language=Python]
# Primary model attempt → Fallback model 1 → Fallback model 2 → Error handling
try:
    result = await primary\_model.generate(prompt)
except ModelException:
    try:
        result = await fallback\_model.generate(prompt)
    except ModelException:
        result = await emergency\_fallback.generate(prompt)
\end{lstlisting}

\textbf{Use Cases:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Production systems requiring high availability
\item Cost optimization with different pricing tiers
\item Model-specific capabilities (e.g., code vs. text generation)
\end{itemize}

\textbf{Implementation Considerations:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Response format standardization across models
\item Performance monitoring for each model
\item Cost tracking and optimization
\item Error handling and logging
\end{itemize}

\subsection{\textbf{Pattern 2: Semantic Search with Vector Databases}}

This pattern creates intelligent search capabilities using embeddings:

\begin{lstlisting}[language=Python]
# Document → Embedding → Vector DB → Query → Embedding → Search → Results
documents = process\_documents(raw\_data)
embeddings = await generate\_embeddings(documents)
await vector\_db.store(documents, embeddings)

query\_embedding = await generate\_embedding(user\_query)
results = await vector\_db.search(query\_embedding, top\_k=10)
\end{lstlisting}

\textbf{Use Cases:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Codebase search and analysis
\item Document retrieval systems
\item Recommendation engines
\item Content discovery platforms
\end{itemize}

\textbf{Implementation Considerations:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Embedding model selection and consistency
\item Vector database scaling and performance
\item Hybrid search combining semantic and keyword matching
\item Real-time indexing and updates
\end{itemize}

\subsection{\textbf{Pattern 3: RAG (Retrieval-Augmented Generation) Architecture}}

This pattern combines retrieval and generation for context-aware responses:

\begin{lstlisting}[language=Python]
# Query → Retrieve Relevant Context → Augment Prompt → Generate Response
relevant\_docs = await search\_system.search(user\_query)
context = format\_context(relevant\_docs)
augmented\_prompt = f"Context: {context}\n\nQuery: {user\_query}"
response = await model.generate(augmented\_prompt)
\end{lstlisting}

\textbf{Use Cases:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Question answering systems
\item Chatbots with knowledge bases
\item Code assistance and documentation
\item Domain-specific AI assistants
\end{itemize}

\textbf{Implementation Considerations:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Context window management
\item Relevance filtering and ranking
\item Context formatting and prompt engineering
\item Response quality monitoring
\end{itemize}

\subsection{\textbf{Pattern 4: MCP (Model Context Protocol) Server Development}}

This pattern creates standardized AI model access through Claude's MCP:

\begin{lstlisting}[language=Python]
# MCP Server → Tool Registry → Claude Integration → Model Access
class MCPAIServer:
    async def handle\_tool\_call(self, name: str, params: dict):
        if name == "generate\_text":
            return await self.model.generate(params["prompt"])
        elif name == "search\_docs":
            return await self.search.search(params["query"])
\end{lstlisting}

\textbf{Use Cases:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Claude Code integrations
\item Standardized AI tool interfaces
\item Multi-model access through single interface
\item Development workflow automation
\end{itemize}

\textbf{Implementation Considerations:}
\begin{itemize}
\item MCP protocol compliance
\item Tool definition and validation
\item Error handling and status reporting
\item Performance optimization for Claude integration
\end{itemize}

\subsection{\textbf{Pattern 5: Streaming and Real-time Processing}}

This pattern handles real-time AI processing with streaming responses:

\begin{lstlisting}[language=Python]
# Request → Stream Processing → Real-time Updates → Client Response
async def stream\_response(prompt: str):
    async for chunk in model.stream\_generate(prompt):
        yield {"data": chunk, "timestamp": datetime.now()}
\end{lstlisting}

\textbf{Use Cases:}
\begin{itemize}
\item Real-time chat interfaces
\item Live content generation
\item Progressive result display
\item Interactive AI applications
\end{itemize}

\textbf{Implementation Considerations:}
\begin{itemize}
\item WebSocket or SSE implementation
\item Backpressure handling
\item Connection management
\item Error recovery in streaming
\end{itemize}
